Arrangement in orange
I had already left the part where the Ilo river meets the ocean. I wanted to walk a bit more before the lunch, just because I prefer to use my legs to know the world. This is the chronicle of that walking.
Orange land
wave slap!
Ilo city has the most beautiful sandy beaches of the Peruvian south, but they are here and there; mostly the shoreline is rocky, mostly a kind of orange, they resemble prehistoric animals coming back to the sea.

Green and black
Fracture in the landscape
I hear all of you
Machines to hear the sea…
Say me blue
Four against the waves
The sea in Ilo is strange. It has turquoise mainly, but also sometimes it’s a milky silver, a pure blue, the sunset gives to it other palettes. It’s usually pacific.

Those days of winter, the water seemed made of ice, you could think in an iceberg melting.
Prepare for impact!
Waiting the sun of the west
Park of rocks
Little head seeing the bit of open sky
Time runs so I walked till this park, it’s designed with emphasis in preserve the natural rocks.
Glimpse to the ships
The artisanal ships of the fishermen crown the line of the sea. They can come so far as 1700 kilometers (one thousand miles) from the North of Peru.

End
So it was time to lunch. I went to the fishermen terminal where the fish is fished the same day. Even more if you are a fisherman or fisherwoman you can bring your own fish to be cooked there.
